3/8 in. Pop Toggle with Screw (6-Pack)

Toggles replaced anchor mollies that wouldn't hold a small hook rack in drywall / no studs nearby. The toggles are super easy to install and seem sturdy (I have ~ 10# on there.) Folding toggles was a little confusing / package instructions not great. Posting pics that helped me.

I have bought these in multiple sizes for different projects now, and will continue to use these as my go-to drywall anchors. These hold a lot of weight and feel way more secure than standard drywall anchors. I have these holding up heavy mirrors, ironing boards, tool racks, and decorations. You do have to make a pretty big hole but it is worth it for how well they work. I found that it helps a lot to use a flat head screwdriver to notch out where the fins that dig into the drywall surface go, as it is hard to insert these otherwise. If you do that, it will fit in easy and flush the first time and it will be much easier to pop the anchors out with the yellow tool. Hint, if you are having to push hard enough that you might break the yellow tool, the anchor is either not flush with the wall, is too small for the thickness of drywall you are putting it in, or there is something snagging in the wall (like spray insulation, which I scraped away with some long angled tweezers). To the "I'm big and strong" people on here who can't seem to fold these easily in spite of being sooooo strong and then complaining that they broke several trying, I have included pictures of the right way to do it. For reference I am 120 lbs, and a whopping 5'3" and I can fold them with one hand. I have broken exactly zero of these out of three packages. Things tend to break when you break them, and then won't work as intended afterwards. These are great, btw.

1) Toggles were extremely difficult to "bend/fold" into the proper shape (according to the back of the package) to fit into the hole. Two toggles, out of two packages purchased, simply wouldn't fold because of molding imperfections (you could see plastic in areas that were open on the others). See image for examples. 2) Once toggles were inserted, apparently they don't "unfold" well on the inside of the drywall, as when tightening the screw into the shelf rail I was installing, I noticed that the toggles were pulling out of the wall. When trying to remove screws, one of them started turning and further damaged/enlarged the hole. It's possible that, if the first problem can be overcome, these might work OK on masonry. I'll be trying to figure out how to remove these from the wall (likely using a cutoff disk to take off the ends, then push the remainder back to drop inside the wall) and replace with metal anchors. They may be more expensive, and a step more to install, but at least they have a track record of reliability.

Used them to replace the tabs on the now discontinued Cheetah Systems click inserts. Worked like a charm so far!

This is an incredible product for installing rails, towel racks, or towel hooks in shower tile. It makes it incredibly easy and reduces the chances of damaging the tile! Excellent product.

These things suck. They spin trying to set the screw anchor and they never really get tight. Tried to mount a robe hook on a bathroom door - no good. Had to start over. Get the old fashioned metal ones to mount on a hollow door.

These were relatively easy to use and gave the support needed to hold the screws in our very thin camper walls.

It did the job. Not difficult to use.
